DODGERS 5, METS 1

It's always fun when the Mets play the Dodgers. Well... not always. There was the 1988 NLCS. Game 4. I was 11 years old and I was there with my dad in the top row of the upper deck. Had we won, we'd have taken a 3-1 series lead. But then Mike Scioscia hit the home run in the ninth inning to force it into extras and we'd eventually lose. Twenty years later I still remember that Scioscia home run. But then there was 2006 when the Mets swept the Dodgers in the NLDS - the clincher coming during my 29th birthday party! Anyway tonight's game? Eh. Not much to say. Funny seeing Joe Torre in a Dodger uniform though. Always liked Joe - hard to root against him when he was with the Yankees, hard to root against him now.
